Up The Down Escalator!

So the first 3 weeks of Uni has gone by and I'm still alive. I'm actually really enjoying University life. I spend most of my time with Jess, Shawn and Alex but on some days I'm usually on my own and if that's the case then I just go somewhere quiet and sit and read. I'm spending so much freakin money that it amazes me. Food, bus tickets, books (thanks for saving me like... $150+ Jess!) is all costing me so much.

We eat lunch at Portage Place pretty much everday. I can go to Manchu Wok, A&W and Mrs. Vanelli's and just say "I'll have the usual" and they'll know what I mean, heh, I'm already sick of chinese food. I'd be starving and by the time we eat lunch Alex will comment on my Manchu Wok and say "You can't finish all that Jon..." and lo and behold, by the time I'm halfway through the noodles and honey garlic chicken, my stomach is already full. It's becaus Jess and Shawn always fill me up with Starbursts D:

I've made quite a few new friends already and they're all nice people. There's Lochie, Phil, Jed, Riza, Raphael, Warren, Suzie, Jamie, Paola, Adam and Scott lol. I'm sure I'll meet more... I'm probably the youngest out of all of them too. I think Jed, Riza, Paola and Jamie are my age though, they're all filipino's/filipina's. But out of all of these new friends, I still prefer hanging out with Jess, Shawn and Alex hahaha, so many good times with these people! ^^b

All the work so far has been keeping me very very busy. Alot of reading, researching, homework, writing and typing to do. It's tough and challenging but so far, it doesn't seem very overwhelming. I'm actually really enjoying it! I've also noticed that since I've started University, my parents have been really... slack with me. I'm given alot of freedom (or more like more responsibilites) yet when I have school or homework they won't let me leave the house hahaha. Jess, I think I understand what you mean now about how you feel in University. It's the same for me. I go to class, I sit there, take notes and listen to the lecture in this big theatre and then when the class ends, I just walk out and read some more somewhere. I think I'm starting to see what you mean by 'a nameless, faceless person' in this school with thousands of students. But for some reason... there are times when I kinda like not having anyone there know me. It gives me more time to do the things I want to. I'm having alot of fun so far ^^v

I'mma hang out with Em, Edgar, Boojie and maybe Norman again whenever Em gives me a call or something. I kinda really wanna join the basketball team. I've gotten a bit taller so maybe I can do it this time... I'm still not as big as most of my friends but I might be the same height as Em now. So practice basketball... that's also on my list of things to do. Learn to play the guitar better is also there hahaha! Adam, when we gonna form our band man??? I think if I play too much without practicing properly first, I might cause my fingers to bleed... the strings still hurt. Also, Alex, sorry bro, the twins didn't sell the Skyline to my sister. They sold it some other guy. If my sister had bought it, I'd have bought it off her and just pay her in installments. Right hand drive, standard, white, old-school Nissan Skyline... man I would have killed for that. Just to be able to drive that kind of car, that'd be a dream come true! I'll get my hands on it someday... someday! If and when I get a job, I'll probably order a car from the twins. I have my eyes on an Evo IV... or maybe those urbanized Evo's.... or maybe even a Protege or something lol. I'm still looking for a job and I know I need one but if I do get one, I'll have practically no time for friends or anything D: Just school and jobs. Or if I do make time for my friends... I'll have no time to rest ;_;

Alright, I think this update is a bit messed up. So much for organization and neatness. If my AW prof saw this... he'd kick my ass and tell me to write a proper MLA format essay about how hard he kicked it and it's effects on me... I'm gonna go finish that book now and then go to bed, friggin tired. My eyes always look really tired, looks like I've been up all night doing cocaine or something lol.

P.S. Jess, I asked my parents about getting an earring... they agreed. IN YO FACE PACHES! I think I need glasses soon too though... my vision is gettin a bit blurry sometimes, especially when taking notes in Biology. Also, Shawn... that girl we saw in Portage Place the other day... with the nice socks (LOL!)... yeah I saw her again... damn she's cute. I think I'll snap one of these days and just ask one of em out to lunch with me or something. Anyways, oyasumi~ hope you all enjoyed my big wall-o-text. Seems more like unorganized rambling now that I look at it... goes to show you how complicated my simple life is I guess :P (Complicated simplicity... heh oxymoron, I'm such a genius... god I'm a such a dork -_-)
